These Celtic knot wall art tiles come as twenty different designs, none repeated from Collection A: circle and ring knots, linked rings, rosettes of four and six loops, petal-shaped quaternary knots, a braided triangle and a few square weaves. It is the rounder, more open side of Celtic interlace, and the set can hang as an art grid or be tiled into a backsplash.
Details
- Material: solid brass sheet about 1 mm thick, embossed by hand over a hand-punched ground
- Finish: aged bronze patina, sealed with wax
- Size: each tile is 10 x 10 cm (3.9 x 3.9 in)
- Depth: 6 mm, with a raised rim around each tile; the back is hollow and has a small hanger
- Comes as: sets of 20, 40 or 60 tiles; every set holds all 20 designs
- Handmade: each piece is embossed to order, so relief and patina vary slightly from the photos
Sizes and coverage
Choose a quantity from the Number of tiles menu. Each tile covers 0.01 m² (0.11 sq ft), with tiles butted together.
- 20 tiles: 0.20 m² (2.2 sq ft), e.g. 5 x 4 tiles = 50 x 40 cm; each design once
- 40 tiles: 0.40 m² (4.3 sq ft), e.g. 8 x 5 tiles = 80 x 50 cm; each design twice
- 60 tiles: 0.60 m² (6.5 sq ft), e.g. 10 x 6 tiles = 100 x 60 cm; each design three times
The tiles cannot be cut, so plan the layout around whole tiles. A row of ten tiles runs 100 cm (39.4 in).
Where to use it
- A grid of tiles above a desk, sofa or console
- A small backsplash behind a coffee station or bar
- A band behind a range or along the sink wall
- Accent tiles dotted through a plain kitchen backsplash
- Glued into cabinet doors, drawer fronts, trays or a tabletop
Installing and care
Set them like ordinary wall tile: butter the hollow back with tile adhesive, press each tile onto a flat, clean wall, then grout or caulk the joints once it has cured. A single tile can also hang on its own from the hanger on the back. Behind a cooktop, leave the clearance your cooktop maker asks for. Tiles cannot be cut, so work out the layout in whole tiles first. To clean, use a soft, damp cloth, then dry; abrasives and strong cleaners strip the patina.
